Clown sightings: Bill The Clown

by Jack Brummet, Clown and Prankster Ed.

Reading the strange clown news lately, I remembered this image I snagged in the early days of the WWW. It was about 1992. Every new website was exciting, and we all passed around the few dozen really interesting ones. I don't remember which site this came from, but it was an archive of photos and early photoshop works. This image was—and remains—one of the creepiest I've seen on the web in the last 25 years, dated 1992, and titled "Bill The Clown," file name bill-the.gif.

Hot Sauce in Kitsap County

By Jack Brummet, Music Ed.

If you like Americana, and/or Bluegrass and raucous humor, you may just love this Melanie Curran album. It is the most hyperlocal collection I've ever heard, but you will enjoy it no matter where you live, because it translates far and wide. The tracks:

  • RIP 305 Park and Ride
  • Peterson's Topsoil 
  • Old Shoes and Picture Postcards
  • Hot Sauce in Kitsap County
  • 7th Greatest Dancer in This Bar 
  • Jefferson County Two-Step
  • Thurston County Blues (Trd.) 
  • The Kingdome Was an Inside Job
  • Capitol Hill is Hell
  • A History of Seattle

Del Brummet's first recording

By Jack Brummet

I think Del was three or four when we recorded this.  His improvised text:

your kookiest guy
in the world
numbers flying 
in the sky
stars and moons
